[ It's—well. The weekend has left her feeling pretty down, and the mood around her is somber because of it. Nonetheless, Koharu slips into a seat, looking them over. ]
[ there's a pause as they debate how much to say. ]
I kinda screwed up my back a few months back. Every now and then it acts up. Probably doesn't help being on my feet a lot. [ but that aside, they are attune to that mood and they finally stand up to look at her. ]
Not that there's room to comment on that—their question comes right after. Koharu props her elbows upon the bar top, resting her chin into both palms. ]
[ honestly they are just pouring her a glass of juice at this rate. ]
Yeah, you and me both. It was bad enough that it happened yesterday, but being forced to kill him with his own hands is... not a good feeling. [ shaking their head. ] Still pretty bad for everyone to have to watch, too.
Heaven wasn't designed for this specifically, I think. Trials, sure, and trains to take people away, fine, but not to make you guys kill each other in front of a life studio audience.
I do remember one of the others telling me it wasn't supposed to happen this way. [ i forget who there's too many damn comments in this post to go looking. ] Maybe it's whoever is interfering with everything else...
Yeah, I'm starting to think this interference has been around a lot longer than we want to admit. Might've been waiting for everyone to start to get settled before lashing out.
But that would mean... Someone out there knew this new system was about to happen. But it's experimental, isn't it? How well known was this idea—do you know?
Maybe. Doesn't seem too likely though, given the residents in heaven. But I don't know. That's up to God to figure out. And if they can't get their shit together, then... we'll do it ourselves.
Come on, where's your fighting spirit? [ it's kind of a joke, but. ] ... I get it. Our hands are kinda tied until God decides to figure it out. They'll manage it. It's just... making sure it's with enough time left.

I wish we didn't have to. It feels cruel to make a show out of it.
